News - PinKDD08

2nd ACM SIGKDD International Workshop on Privacy, Security, and Trust in KDD - PinKDD08 - is a full-day workshop, to be held in conjunction with the 14th ACM SIGKDD conference on August 24-27, 2008 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Research Interests

My research interests lie at the crossroad of Privacy, Security, Data Mining and Databases: Security and Privacy issues raised by data integration and distributed Data Mining techniques; Security issues in Databases and Federated Search; Applied Cryptography and Secure Multi-Party Computation techniques; Document anonymization techniques to prevent the disclosure of privacy sensitive attributes. Advisor: Professor Chris Clifton.
